"Very comfortable and freindly"

An excellent base for visiting relatives. Couldn't fault the welcome or the quality of the food and room. The only quibble we would have is that the shower cubicle was rather on the small side, which made applying shampoo and soap rather tricky! Read less

Dislikes:

Only the size of the shower cubicle let it down.

Response from Strathmore Lawn East:
